Name: White Chocolate Almond Scones
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1/3 cup butter; 1 3/4 cups flour; 3 tablespoons sugar; 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1 egg, beaten; 6 tablespoons half-and-half (can use milk, but 1/2 and 1/2 is better); 1 teaspoon almond extract; white chocolate chips (as many as desired); sliced almonds (optional); 1 egg white (just the whites)

Servings: persons

1/3 cup butter
1 3/4 cups flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
6 tablespoons half-and-half (can use milk, but 1/2 and 1/2 is better)
1 teaspoon almond extract
white chocolate chips (as many as desired)
sliced almonds (optional)
1 egg white (just the whites)

1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut butter into flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt with a pastry blender until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
2
Stir in one egg, almond extract, and half and half. (Can add more half and half if the dough isn't coming away from the bowl.)
3
Add white chocolate chips and almonds. I find it easiest to mix the dough with my hands.
4
Take the dough in your hands and form 8 large balls. Set the balls on an ungreased cookie sheet. They don't have to be smooth -- the dough will be sticky to work with.
5
Brush scones with egg white.
6
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
7
Immediately remove from the cookie sheet and cool on a cooling rack.
